A bar feeder automatically pushes bar stock through a lathe's spindle so the machine can turn part after part unattended. As each part is cut off, the feeder advances fresh material to a stop, enabling lights-out production of round parts from raw bar.
Bar feeders are matched to bar diameter and length, and are standard equipment on Swiss-type and production turning centers.
